BFGoodrich Radial T/As. Ride good and look the best IMO.
 
I have had really good luck with Hankook Ventus series tires. They were a fair price and hooked pretty well. Lasted quite a while as well. I have also had Kumho Ecsta and Goodyear F1's. Best bang for the buck was the Hankooks.
 
All depens on road conditions I go for whats cheapest I bought four brand new tires for under 300 dollars that lasted awhile as long as your not an agressive driver for winter preferences right now I have two studded firestones brand new in the back and a Hercules bf g mix scrap tires up front both have same tread pattern but overall Bfgs are amazing my dad has them on his summer show car and they look good and feel good
 
Monte gets RWL = Mickey Sportsman ST's or BFG - TA's

DD Car = Michelin Hydroedge
DD WorkVan = Michelin LTX
 
Im a fan of the Michelins as well, got the LTX's on my Sierra and Cherokee and will be gettin some Michelin Sports for the wifes Z28 in a few months. Only thing that doesn't have Michelins is the GP which has cheapo Continentals for now.
 
with the exception of Radial T/As, I'm a fan of BFG tires... I've had amazing experience with their KDW line (old style, not sure about their fancy new ones). I've also used the KDWS, good performance but not as hardcore.

I loved their Comp T/A line, most commonly found on old IROC and T/A 16" wheels. But they discontinued them 🙁

I am now using their Drag Radial line... they look way more awesome than Mickey Thompson DRs (in my opinion), and because of the more conventional tread pattern, they are nicer in the rain.

The Radial T/As look great, but I would only use them on a doddling cruiser... I don't expect the performance I get from the KDWs. And up here, I find they get hard quickly after sitting over the winter.

Falken Azenis RTs... no thanks... never again... great looking, VERY soft... but somehow, very little grip, and they last all of about 1 summer. And, because they are a tuner brand, they are some how skinnier than the equivalent domestic brand. (my BFG 245s are wider than my Falken 275s)
 
Depends on what your using them for..I have goodyears on my DD, now with the MOnte, I have Nirro Drag Radials 275x60x15 in the rears..They hook rather well at the track and are rated for WET and dry roads...I went the safety route as I take the family for rides in it 8)
 
I have the BFG G-Force T/A KDW 245-50ZR16's and find them the best tire I have ever had. It's not the new style with the radical design which looks ridiculous in my opinion. It's too bad they stopped production of the tread pattern I have and I'm trying to find another set
